Ankur Warikoo recently took to LinkedIn to share ways to make oneself indispensable at work, mentioning that a career doesn’t have to depend on one big talent. “This is the strategy that the fastest-growing professionals are using (Which also AI-proofs their career) as they build their edge by blending three layers of skill,” he says.
